Is there an interest for a book with really good instructions for creating a costume from scratch, altering an existing costume, making and designing accessories for your costumes?

Would it help to have step by step photos done in full color?

Would it help to have detailed beading techniques for beading on a surface? Would it help to have techniques for making basic jewelry?

Or is learning from a step by step book old news, would it be better to learn from video or DVD instruction?

Also, would there be an interest in having some great patterns available to purchase if needed in conjunction with an intructional book such as this?

Such patterns would have a full pattern, not an instruction to measure and mark the fabric and then cut it. What if the patterns included full color photos/instruction to help inspire/give ideas for embellishing/beading fabric/sewn garments for dance and costuming.

Opinions everyone?
